Leave a Legacy

Why give? Because miracles happen every day at Agape.

Our participants make physical and emotional strides during every session. Agape is a special place where people can connect and develop a relationship with our four-legged friends, volunteers, and PATH Intl. certified instructors. Horses and humans have a special bond, and, at Agape, we can facilitate this experience to provide hope and healing.

Your gift helps bridge this gap. You help us keep our program fees low. You help us provide scholarships to those in need. Agape is growing and we hope that you decide to be a part of our mission through giving. Together – we can give thousands unbridled hope.

We want you to know that EVERY dollar, and EVERY gift, matters.

Without your support, Agape could not exist. For general giving… Give Today

Program Giving

Rider Support Fund

We have never had to turn away a rider due to financial hardship. Because of the gifts to our Rider Support Fund, we are able to keep our program service fees at a low and reasonable cost for families and community partners, including full and partial scholarships to those who might not be able to participate in our programs without it. This fund helps support all of our programs and the staff, volunteers, and horses that make the magic happen.

The Agape Wish List

Thank you for reviewing our Wish List. By donating you can help Agape keep our administrative and facility costs down so that we can devote more money to our mission and programs. Please contact us first if you are interested in providing any items in bold. For details on any of the items listed, contact 317-773-7433.

***Agape also accepts your donation of used horse tack and equipment, including English and Western saddles. We will put into circulation or save for future use those items that we need. All other items will be sold with proceeds returning to Agape.

Adopt a Horse

The Agape horses are our four-legged therapists. These gentle, kindhearted souls have been donated to Agape and are enjoying a second career, sometimes a third career. Riders and volunteers develop close relationships with their horses as they experience their wonderment and unconditional love. You can help Agape by adopting and supporting the care of one of our gentle giant partners in service. Read More about our horses >>

SPONSOR A HORSE FOR SIX MONTHS FOR $1,500

BUCKETS AND BALES

Horses go through lots of hay (3-4 bales a day), and several individual horses need grain or other supplements each day (bucket). These costs add up, and Agape is asking for your help.

Support your favorite horse – buy a bale for $15 or a bucket for $20. Each donation you make will nominate the horse (or horses) of your choice as finalists for the Top 5 “Horse of the Year” finalists. The “Horse of the Year” finalists (based off who receives the most Bucket & Bale nominations) will be selected at the end of every year!

Donate a Horse

Agape’s horses are special and have the ability to help improve the quality of life for all who participate in classes. We appreciate your interest in donating your equine to our program. Without caring individuals like you, our program would be “legless.”
